I am just following those recommendations in AA beta announcement:

https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=39117

The kernel 2.4 support has been dropped from Attitude Adjustment. Also I saw 
some users complaining about lack of memory on current trunk or AA on older 
devices.

I think it's a rule that new functionality also raises minimal memory 
requirements. It's a recommendation for older devices to stick with backfire, 
but you can build an image on your own without services you do not need to fit 
in a small amount of memory. :-)

I can't say. I don't know. :-(
